Dear Magika,
Thanks again for educating me. One learns something new every day and that's what keeps us 'alive'. Once you stop learning, you're dead....

Trendafil? What does that mean in your language? Where is the word derived from?
I'm just curious, because "triantafilo" means "rose" in Greek.
It's from the word "trianta" which means "thirty" and "filo" which means "leaf".
However the flower in question looks nothing like a rose to me, then again, I'm not much of a bottanist.

Yes, but we can still discuss it's concept.
I mean if you want to get technical, the flag should be just plain red with nothing on it, because flags back then were simply for signaling, and held no meaning behind them.

And i think they had banners, (roman-like with the eagle), and i think they had a rams head on the macedonian banner, and not the sun-burst, which was located only on there shields and other decorative objects and even tombstones.
